If you loved Der Geschmack der Kirsche, try Close-Up
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Abbas Kiarostami, and they both carry the foreign gem, outsider mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Der Geschmack der Kirsche, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Close-Up is
You wake as Sabzian, a bus-route clerk with two children and mounting debts. You pretend to be Makhmalbaf on a Tehran porch and everything tilts. Then the camera rolls, the real comes undone, and identity folds like paper. Kiarostami’s hybrid blurs the line between life and art, leaving you unsure where one ends and the other begins.
